    lifted m1009 gas mileage?

    my dad has a 1009 with a 4in lift and 33's and gets at least 20mpg, it acctually seemed that the truck was a little peppier too. It was a super easy upgrade and he is more than happy with it.

    dumb ? but the shaft isnt broken or striped is it? the air moving through the turbo will still cause the blades to spin.

    ive seen 12v's how difficult would a 24v be?

    wouldnt it be a lot easier to just get a SAE #3 bellhousing for the cummins and bolt your 3053 to that?

    ive seen 12v's how difficult would a 24v be?

    the 53 block was a block that was cast in brazil for the first couple of years that the 24v was out i.e. 98,99&some2000. aparently they had problems with "core shift" during the casting process and they where very prone to cracking. I am not saying they all crack but to me its not worth the...

    ive seen 12v's how difficult would a 24v be?

    Make Shure its not a #53 block, otherwise the 4b is worth more, actually around here the 4b is worth more anyways. Oh yea, be ready for IP problems.

    It is time... Enter the age of the Cummins

    There not talking about a 1009 and the stock front axle in the 1008,1028 is the same as a dodge diesel and the rear is stronger than dodge Dana 70. They will be just fine.

    It is time... Enter the age of the Cummins

    To run the 205 behind a 4500 you just need the short input 205 and an Advance Adapters spacer. I'm pretty Shure you mean long input as the short did not come in a round 6 bolt case.

    axle swap

    6o's get to be a pita if you have a 1028, or 1031. findind a track loc with 35spline gears for 4.10 & down is about next to imposible. and changing the side gears in one sux just about as bad. Hes got a 1008 so puting his sidegears in the 4.10 and numaricaly lower case that you mentiond would be...
